Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie celebrated their third wedding anniversary on Aug. 14, but just months before, the now-happy couple was on the verge of separation. In fact, a pal close to the actress tells Star that the duo actually entered couples’ therapy last February!

“She felt like Mike forgot how to treat her special,” the insider reveals.

Luckily, the therapy worked wonders for the couple, and now, they’re more in love than ever. This, of course, is especially good news considering Hilary and Mike are parents to a 17-month-old son, Luca.
